"What?" Long Lihui couldn't believe it. Because of the missing teeth in his mouth, his speech was lisp. "Grandma is not my biological grandmother?"
"Grandmother isn't your biological grandmother, but she is your great-aunt." Ling appealed to her feelings and reason. "If her position is lost, do you think you can become the crown prince in the future?"
For example, if she didn't have her aunt, she wouldn't be able to enter the Prince of Jin's Mansion, let alone be the Princess of Jin for more than ten years.
You know, there are very few men like Long Yi in the world.
Being his woman is the dream of many women.
And she was the Princess of Jin for more than ten years.
If it weren't for her aunt, it would have been difficult for her to get her current position as a concubine.
So no matter what, she had to save her aunt.
This is the reason why the saying "lips and teeth are cold" is true.
Then she thought that her aunt hadn't been cruel enough back then. She should have eliminated Qiao Wanyou and her son as soon as possible. If they had been eliminated then, the position of empress would have been hers, and no one would have revealed that her aunt wasn't Long Yi's biological mother. Her son would have been able to successfully become the crown prince.
I wonder if my aunt, who is under house arrest now, regrets it.
When Long Lihui heard about the prince, he became excited: "Mother, what do you want me to do?"
"Go to the Ling family and ask your grandfather to gather all the forces he can. I just heard that your father will depose the Empress Dowager in front of all the civil and military officials at the court tomorrow morning."
"Mother means to get my grandparents to object."
"Well, this is the only way to go now."
"Okay, I'll go right away."
Long Lihui hurried out.
When passing by the palace maid, he paused deliberately.
The palace maid's head drooped even lower.
Ling saw this and sighed deeply.
After her son left, she called the maid to her side and said, "Tell me, what happened between you and His Highness?"
The maid immediately knelt and begged for mercy, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. When I found the Seventh Prince, he was having sex with a woman. The situation was urgent, so I had to bite the bullet and interrupt. I probably angered the Seventh Prince because of this. That's why all the way here, the prince, he, he..."
"What about him?"
"He touched me. If I hadn't obeyed, Your Highness wouldn't have come."
"He touched me, so he touched me." Ling Shi didn't care. "When he becomes the crown prince, I will give you to him. If the current dilemma can be successfully resolved, I will suggest that he make you a concubine."
The maid was overjoyed when she heard this: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
On this side, Long Lihui left the palace and rode a fast horse straight to the Ling family.
On the other side, Fu Ciyi and Yan Funing returned to Prince Rui's Mansion.
As soon as the carriage stopped, she hit him.
Fu Ciyi raised his head from in front of her, his voice low and deep: "I never thought the Imperial Palace and the Prince's Mansion were so close."
It seemed to arrive in just a moment.
Yan Funing straightened her clothes and smoothed her hair. She understood the meaning behind his words, leaned forward angrily, and bit his lips with her pearly teeth.
Fu Ciyi was not angry but happy: "Take another bite."
"No."
She was expressing her anger and annoyance, but he actually thought it was humor.
What can you say about this man?
Fu Ciyi also helped her straighten her collar.
Yan Funing blushed immediately: "My clothes are wrinkled, how can I get out of the car and face people?"
Although it was already late at night, there were still many people in the palace.
Especially Eunuch Song and Housekeeper Yu, these two will definitely be waiting at the gate of the mansion...
"It's okay." Fu Ciyi said calmly, "Your husband will hold you." Then he picked her up horizontally and said, "Hold me."
As long as she hugged his neck tightly and pressed her body against his chest, others would not be able to see anything.
It was just seeing him holding her.
Yan Funing did as she was told, and her whole body felt limp, and she began to yawn and feel sleepy.
As soon as the two got out of the car, Eunuch Song and Housekeeper Yu came up to greet them: "Your Highness and the Princess are back."
Seeing Yan Fu curled up in Fu Ciyi's arms and yawning, Eunuch Song asked in a low voice, "Your Highness, is the princess sleepy?"
"Yes." Fu Ciyi's voice was light, "It's late at night, you should rest early. There's no need to wait on me."
"Yes, Your Highness."
Both of them took a few steps back and waited until their master entered the palace before they retreated.
Yan Funing poked her head over Fu Ciyi's shoulder and saw them retreating. Just as she was about to speak, she noticed many people on the street stopping to salute.
Forget it, I'd better just stay in his arms.
Being carried all the way back to the room by Fu Ciyi, Yan Funing's eyelids couldn't help twitching as she bounced up and down in his arms.
When he returned to her room, he saw that she was already very sleepy. Fu Ciyi couldn't bear it and said, "I'm really too busy today. Let me help you wash."
"Yeah." Yan Funing closed her eyes and nodded.
After today, she was indeed tired.
If he is willing to serve her, she will enjoy it as His Royal Highness Prince Rui is serving others.
The couple went into the bathroom.
Yan Funing was really sleepy, so she let Fu Ciyi strip off her clothes, put her on the white jade chair, and let him do whatever he wanted to do to clean her body.
The white jade chair and the white jade bed were not even half as good as her skin.
Although he had seen it before, Fu Ciyi couldn't help but tense up when he saw it again.
But he felt sorry for her and didn't want to do anything rash at all. He just wanted to serve her as quickly as possible and put her to bed.
In this state, he was really worried that she would catch a cold.
When the young couple went to bed, at that moment in the palace, in the queen's bedroom, Long Yi was standing at the window in a bright yellow nightgown, looking at the night view.
Qiao Wanyou took out her coat and put it on him: "What is the emperor thinking about?"
Long Yi reached out and patted the hand that was gently resting on his shoulder: "You and I have missed each other for more than ten years."
"A dozen years is nothing." Qiao Wanyou sighed, "Mother is in the cold palace, living so close to you, yet you have been separated for over forty years."
Long Yi tightened his jaw. One had lasted for more than ten years, the other forty years. The conspiracies and intrigues behind them were one after another. The so-called mother-son relationship between him and the Empress Dowager had completely disappeared.
He turned sideways and squeezed Qiao Wanyou's hands tightly: "I'm sorry to you and your son, and I'm sorry to my mother."
"Fortunately, it's not too late now. The truth is finally revealed." Qiao Wanyou said softly, "Mother has suffered a lot in the cold palace. Your Majesty must be extremely filial to her from now on."
Long Yi nodded: "The position of Empress Dowager should belong to my biological mother. Mother is my biological mother, so she should be the Empress Dowager."
"It's good to have the emperor say this."
"I wonder if Mother is getting used to living in the Queen Mother's palace?"
"With Nanny Xiu waiting on her, and Concubine Ling accompanying her, she should be able to get used to it. Your Majesty, let's go to bed early, as we have important matters to attend to at court tomorrow morning."
"Um."
If the title of empress dowager, which was previously announced to the world, is to be cancelled now, this process must naturally be followed.
Only then did the couple fall asleep.
The next day, Long Yi woke up at dawn.
As soon as he woke up, Qiao Wanyou woke up too.
As soon as the emperor and empress got up, Eunuch Han immediately ordered someone to bring in the dragon robe.
Qiao Wanyou personally helped Long Yi dress. "I don't understand the affairs of the court. But the Empress Dowager has already had considerable support. Your Majesty, I'm afraid there will be dissenting voices in the court today."
